Recently, two employees were charged with abusing a dementia patient at Quadrangle Community at Sunrise Senior Living. The abuse was caught on a hidden camera set up by the victim’s family members. The camera, disguised as a clock, was placed in the victim’s room by the family after they suspected the abuse. The authorities have disclosed that the video shows that the 78-year old victim was topless while the “caretakers” taunted and tugged at the victims’ ears. Quadrangle is run by Sunrise Senior Living.
